DETOX YOUR HOME
TIME FOR A
Detox?
Out & About talks to local expert Karen Powell on how to organise and de-clutter your home for the New Year Hello I’m Karen - I’m organised! I’m a natural problem solver, as anyone who knows me will tell you! I love people and I want to help them to be confident and happy. I believe happiness starts at home and if home feels out of control so will you. It follows that you won’t feel happy there, right?
New to being organised? These are my top organising tips: 1. Don’t set yourself up to fail.
Start small and aim for a goal each day like one drawer or one shelf.
2. Keep like with like - that way
even if everything feels like it could be tidier at least it’ll be together so you can find it.
I help people everyday gain control and begin to live and feel happy at home. So, whether it’s a living room, kitchen, garage, or a wardrobe to be sorted, I can help.
3. Get in a professional if you can!
It’s my job to figure people out; How they’re living and using their space, versus how they want to live and how much time and effort they have to prepare and invest.
Seriously, the time saving relief is real and if you can’t, follow someone like me on Instagram @theorganisinglady who gives away free regular tips and advice. You will begin to create good habits.
How can I help?
I offer a transformational decluttering service, helping clients say goodbye to things they don’t need by making some simple, practical changes for a more organised and clutter free way of living. I have over 25 years practical organising experience. I work with families, downsizers, business’s, divorce, bereavement, packing & unpacking - offering a personal service which takes the stress out moving. If you asked me one rule for improved organisation and to feel more organised anywhere at home… make sure things that go together, stay together.…
